The brewery was founded in the 18th Century and is now the largest weisse beer producer in Germany and therefore the world. Erdinger only makes wheat beer and all their brews use an unusually low protein wheat which give a clean and soft tasting beer. A light and fruity wheat beer that is less spicy than many other weisse beers.

Erdinger �Old Weisse� is brewed using a recipe that originates from the breweries foundation more than 120 years ago. Presented in the old style �Euro bottle�, Ur weisse is golden in colour and has aromas of cloves and tropical fruit. The taste is more pronounced and spicier than the traditional Heffe Weisse, but eminently drinkable.

This dark wheat beer is rich and smooth with a chocolaty taste and aroma. It owes its full-bodied flavour to the fine hops and dark malt used in its production.
